Physiotherapy

All our Physiotherapists are chartered, and registered with the Health and Care Professions Council.

Physiotherapy helps to restore movement and function when someone is affected by injury, illness or disability.

It takes a holistic approach that involves the patient directly in their own care.

Sports therapy and rehabilitation

Optimum Derby’s Sports Therapists have all graduated with a 3 year degree from the Society of Sports Therapists.

Sports Therapy is an aspect of healthcare that is specifically concerned with the prevention of injury. It also addresses rehabilitation of the patient back to optimum levels of functional, occupational and sports specific fitness, regardless of age and ability.

Sports massage

Sports massage is a deep form of soft tissue mobilisation. It can be applied in a sporting and non-sporting context.

Sports massage involves a wide range of techniques that include effleurage, kneading, wringing, hacking and trigger pointing.

Sports massage is not just for athletes.
